Medium Australian Labradoodle Litter – born Oct 29 2020, going home Dec 23/24 2020
Golds and apricots, expected size to be between 27 and 35 pounds
This is Mia, our daughter out of Penny’s first litter with Murphy. She is a super friendly apricot girl with a lovely coat of deep apricot curls. She’s right on the cusp between full sized mini and small medium for size. Mia has never met a person or dog she didn’t like! Happy go lucky and outgoing without being bossy or a brat, she is a great dog and her guardian family loves her to bits. Her daddy is retired from siring puppies, but he is a beautiful 36 pound medium gold and white parti boy, so we may see some tuxedo markings on her puppies. Mia is out of a litter of 9 puppies so it will not surprise me if she does the same.
Because I want her to have a litter of mid sized mediums (and also because our red stud Bentley is her grand daddy) we have chosen to have Oliver sire this litter (so thank you Tai and Cheyenne!). Oliver is a really nice boy with moderate boning and a beautiful wavy apricot fleece coat. His easy going manner and friendliness will complement Mia perfectly and we look forward to their babies together. Oliver is out of a 30 pound parent and a 38 pound parent, so he is a nice mid sized 34 pounds with ability to produce puppies both bigger and a bit smaller than himself. This litter would be graded as multi gen Australian Labradoodles and I would expect the puppies to finish out between 27 and 35 pounds when fully grown.
And here are the babies!
Silver Collar Apricot Girl – going to the Ou/Zheng family
This cute girl is a nice sized girl who will likely finish out as a small medium in size. She’s bigger than some and smaller than others! She is a moderately active girl who does settle in when we pick her up, but she likes to go play and do things too. She’d suit a family wanting to go for good walks and romps at the beach.

Pink Collar Red Parti Girl – pending to the Coopersmith Prugh family
This sweet little girl is a sweetie! She’s funny and playful but quite calm and more on the mellow side for activity levels. She is one of the smaller puppies in the litter and will most likely finish out in the mini size range. She’ll do great with kids or grand kids and will be a sweet companion.

Teal Collar Apricot Parti Boy – going to the Henderson family
What a lovely fellow! He’s quite a mellow fellow and he cuddles in ever so nicely! He’s a mini in size and he has a lovely fleece coat. He’ll make a great family pet and will do well with kids (well, all of them will we think).

Yellow Collar Parti Boy
What a gentle boy! He’s friendly and sweet and we may keep him for ourselves…

Tan Collar Parti Boy – going to the Richmond family
Another handsome boy! He’s one of the bigger puppies in the litter and he’ll most likely finish out nicely in the medium size range. He’s chill and mellow, but does like to play with his siblings! He’ll make a great family pet for a family wanting a more easy going and mellow dude. He’d do great with kids and would have good therapy potential I think.

No Collar Red Boy – the Fletcher family
This boy is super handsome! He has a lovely dark red coat and he’s a fun boy with a zest for life! He’s more towards moderately active and he’ll make a really nice family pet for somebody who likes to go for long walks and have a buddy to go with. He does settle down nicely in our arms when we pick him up too. He’ll finish out in the smaller medium size I think, as he’s not the biggest or the smallest in the litter.

Light Green Collar Apricot Boy – going to the McFarland family
What a handsome boy! He’s got a small white snip on his chest and a lovely coat of wavy fleece. He’s somewhere between mellow and moderate, and he has a bit of a mind of his own but not ridiculously so. He’s definitely treat motivated and he will be a fun dog to train! He’ll do well with older kids and would suit a family that likes to be outdoors and doing things. He gives kisses but not face washes, and I like that. He’ll finish as a smaller medium in size, we think.

Burgundy Collar Parti Boy – going to the Williamson family
Last but not least, here he is! He’s a gentle and sweet boy with a fun personality! He is most likely going to finish as a smaller medium also I think. He’s somewhere between mellow and moderate and so he’ll do well with a family that enjoys walks but also likes to watch movies and hang out. He’d do well with kids or grand kids and has a nice amount of patience.
